PFC 08 Racing Front Brake Pads - Porsche 996/997 Caliper

Race pads with smooth initial bite, slight friction rise with temperature, and excellent release and modulation characteristics

Performance Friction race pads have been the pad of choice for the BimmerWorld IMSA Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge Team since we tested our first set back in our World Challenge days. The fact is, Performance Friction race pads take home more championships per year than any other pad brand on the market, and those same pads are available to you.

PFC’s 08 compound has gained a well-earned following in endurance, sportscar, and GT racing due to its performance in applications where exceptional wear rates and smooth initial bite are a must. The 08 race pads have a slight friction rise as temperature increases, excellent release and modulation characteristics, and very low abraded disc wear. On top of the excellent overall performance, the 08 compound has the longest wear rate of all PFC pads.

The mission of Performance Friction is to provide the optimal pad compound for each application that they make. Rather than the “shotgun” method of developing every pad in every compound, PFC builds the correct pad to suit the venue it is designed for.

• Smooth initial bite
• Excellent release and modulation
• Exceptional wear rates
• Low disk wear
• Ideal for endurance and extended track day use

NOTE on Street Use - These are race and track-use pads. While they can be driven on the street, and many of our customers choose to drive to and from events with them, they are designed for ultimate track performance and their street manners may not meet everyone's demands. If you are looking for a street-worthy race pad, these 08 compounds have the lowest wear rates and noise of the PFC race pads.

Made in the USA

BMW fitment note: this pad is originally used for Porsche Brembo calipers that often find their way onto BMW E36 and E46 M3 cars. We have never sold this conversion so our first-hand knowledge of fitment is limited. We sell quite a few of these pads for these conversions but may not be able to answer all of your questions. Refer to the diagram above for any dimensions you may need.
